looking out across the lake

hello, can't you hear me?

this isn't my home town

i'm counting all our footsteps

watching the world burn down


rooves of gray and blue

miles of crosshatch trees

i see the ruin gathered in piles

what i expect of autumn leaves


the flag is flown half-staff

looking out across the lake

storms, in all their glory

don't care much about their wake
